// (defaults to == if operator omitted) | |

// {{equal unicorns ponies }} | |
// That's amazing, unicorns are actually undercover ponies | |

Handlebars.registerHelper('compare', function(lvalue, rvalue, options) { | |

var operators = { | |

}); |
Looks pretty familiar.

This is a very useful piece of code. However, for me the params I passed were not being evaluated. So I had to add these lines at the beginning of the helper.
